Autumn In New York

Some romance films are OK, even for those of us who can barely stand to watch them. Others, like Autumn In New York, are so incredibly wet it makes you wonder why anyone even bothered.

Will Keane is a restaurant owner that’s afraid of commitment, who meets and falls in love with Charlotte Fielding. However, tragic circumstances mean that their love is destined to be short…

Instore at Woolworths you can pick up this DVD for just £2.

The Godfather Trilogy: The Coppola Restoration (Blu-Ray) £30.95

The Godfather Trilogy: The Coppola Restoration (Blu-Ray)

The original DVD release of the Godfather trilogy was very good, but the picture quality (especially for the first two) left a little bit to be desired. Thankfully The Godfather Trilogy: The Coppola Restoration has remastered versions of all three films, and each have never looked better.

As this is the Blu-Ray release, please make sure that you can play these kind of discs before making a purchase. I should probably also point out that all of the extra features found on the standard DVD version are present and correct.

Hitman: Extended Edition (Blu-Ray) £9.98

Hitman: Extended Edition (Blu-Ray)

Most video games that are turned into movies are fairly average at best (and vice versa, as games based on films are generally pants too), and Hitman is no exception. The phrase "plenty of style, not enough content" is probably quite an apt way to describe it.

Agent 47 has been educated to become a professional assassin for hire, whose most powerful assets are his nerve and the pride he takes in his work. He’s hired by a group known as "The Agency" to kill selected targets for money, but eventually the hunter becomes the hunted…

Battlestar Galactica: Season One (HD-DVD) £15.90

Battlestar Galactica: Season One (HD-DVD)

I’m sure that you’ll know by now that HD-DVD has lost the "war" with Blu-Ray over who would provide high-definition discs to the masses. This is good news in some respects though, as any stock has been drastically reduced by some retailers.

Battlestar Galactica: Season One is one of the regular sets that has appeared on this site, but not for quite some time now - probably because most places will have none left!

Blah DVD are selling this for £15.90 - click here for more details.

Doctor Who: New Beginnings £9.88

Doctor Who: New Beginnings

It’s all well and good seeing the newer versions of Doctor Who, but it’s also nice to look back at some of the earlier incarnations of the good Doctor.

The Doctor Who: New Beginnings boxset is a three disc set that contains the serials "The Keeper Of Traken", "Logopolis", and "Castrovalva" as well as a host of bonus features. These also mark the final two appearances of Tom Baker, and the first of Peter Davidson.

Hangin’ With The Homeboys £1.23

Hangin' With The Homeboys is one of those cheap DVDs that is better than it sounds

If we ignore the frankly ridiculous title for a minute, Hangin’ With The Homeboys is actually an OK comedy drama about four guys whose lives change after an eventful night out.

There’s not much else to say, as the DVD has nowt in the way of extra features - unless you regard a trailer and interactive menu as extras!

To get this for only £1.23 from Blah DVD, click here.

10,000 BC: Limited Edition £8.93

10,000 BC: Limited Edition

Roland Emmerich is known for his big-budget blockbusters like Independence Day and The Day After Tomorrow, so it shouldn’t be surprising to learn that 10,000 BC is another one - albeit this is a love story set in prehistoric times, instead of an end of the world explosion-fest.

The 10,000 BC: Limited Edition DVD comes in a special tin, and also includes a digital copy of the film which you can download to your portable player. There’s also a fair few special features as well.

Click here to buy this for £8.93 from The Hut.
